About this file

This is a solicitation information request letter from the Federal Emergency Management Agency regarding local area evaluation preference eligibility for Solicitation Number 70FBR626Q00000006. The letter addresses janitorial services (NAICS code 561720) in a declared disaster area encompassing four New Mexico counties: Lincoln, Dona Ana, Otero, and the Mescalero Reservation.

The contracting officer has determined that the recipient company does not appear to reside or primarily conduct business in the disaster area based on its Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) registration in SAM.gov. Under the Robert T. Stafford and Local Community Recovery Act of 2006, local firms receive preferential evaluation treatment. Non-local offerors will have a 10 percent price evaluation factor added to their offers on a line-item basis, while local businesses receive no such penalty. If the two highest-rated offerors are a local and non-local business concern with equal evaluated prices after applying the preference factor, award will be made to the local business concern.

To qualify for local area preference, the offeror must provide evidence supporting one of eight evaluation factors: physical office location(s) and establishment date in the set-aside area; current state licenses; past work record in the area; contractual history with local subcontractors or suppliers; percentage of gross revenues from work in the set-aside area; number of permanent employees in the area; membership in local organizations; or other evidence such as utility bills and bank statements for sole proprietorships. The response deadline is 10:00 p.m. Central Time on April 10, 2026, with Michael Bonds identified as the Contracting Officer.
